Staurogyne repens is a green stemmed plant that closely resembles Hygrophila. Staurogyne repens is dwarf in size and sends stems out laterally to form a carpet the same as to a dwarf baby tears.
Staurogyne repens is a beautiful small plant that quickly became a favorite of aquascapers. The plant settles in very quickly in a nutrient rich substrate with supplemental CO2 and spreads beautifully to make a dense ground cover. It requires good care, however, with regular nutrient supply or it is likely to stunt and suddenly lose all its leaves.

Hitchhiker Warning
We recommend cleaning all plants before adding them to your tank. We regularly perform quality checks prior to shipping plants. However, we cannot guarantee our plants to be snail or hitchhiker-free. If you do not want to risk snails, please consider rinsing plants, conducting a bleach dip, or quarantining plants prior to adding them in your aquarium. Snails are a natural part of working with live plants.
